An Underpass 42.4 Sazhens long at Verst 15, 1900-1904. Creator: Unknown
An Underpass 42.4 Sazhens long at Verst 15, 1900-1904. In the second half of the 19th century, Russia underwent a period of extensive rail development that culminated in the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railroad. Akin to the great railroads to the Pacific in both the United States and Canada, Russia's transcontinental line was intended to supply and populate Siberia as well as deliver raw materials to the rapidly developing industries west of the Urals. This photograph is from an album of 56 photographs in the Collection of Documentary Materials on the History of the West-Siberian Railroad (1890s-1978) in the Novosibirsk Oblast State Archive. The album documents the construction of this part of the line, focusing on the engineers and workmen building tunnels and trestles along the route. The album was digitized for the Meeting of Frontiers digital library project in the early 2000s. Iz fotoal'boma "Al'bom postroek i vidov krugobai?kal'skoi? zheleznoi? dorogi. 1900-1904 g.".

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the monumental construction of an underpass along the Trans-Siberian Railroad in the early 1900s. Stretching an impressive 42.4 sazhens long at Verst 15, this engineering marvel is a testament to Russia's ambitious rail development during this period.
The Trans-Siberian Railroad played a crucial role in connecting and developing Siberia, as well as facilitating the transportation of raw materials across vast distances. The album from which this photograph originates offers a rare glimpse into the laborious efforts of engineers and workmen who dedicated themselves to building tunnels and trestles along this historic route.
Preserved in the Novosibirsk Oblast State Archive, this image is part of a larger collection documenting the history of the West-Siberian Railroad from the late 19th century to modern times. Digitized for archival purposes, these photographs provide valuable insights into Russia's industrial growth and infrastructure expansion.
As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the ingenuity and determination required to construct such massive structures amidst challenging conditions. The unknown creator behind this image has captured not just a physical underpass but also a piece of Russian history that continues to resonate with us today.
